Autumn Bling

SONY DSC


The Memorial Service (for my Father in Law)is over. I AM TIRED! The family has gone home. Now I have some time for me & I have been wanting to share my “Fabulous” Autumn Bracelet that my friend Sandy & I made last Fall. She was out for a visit & had just helped host a Bracelet Swap for Silver Bella (that one was clear rhinestones). I LOVED IT! We both love Fall & Bling so much we decided to do one together in those wonderful Rich Autumn Colors! We each bought things we wanted on our bracelets & shared some with each other. So we have similar bracelets & I LOVE that. Above is a shot of mine close up. And below, the entire bracelet.

I think it is a little bit heavy (weight wise) for me & I am going to re-work it so things fall better. I have all the things to do a clear one (Go HERE to see that post by Sandy & be amazed at the beautiful things she shares on her blog). Here’s a little tease…

Aurora Borealis Bracelet on the far right is awesome too! Sandy is an amazing artist & even better friend. I think of you every time I see my beauty winking at me sweet girl. And this week I bought a few more Autumn inspired pieces (that just arrived) to play with for something else I’m dreaming up…

Hope you enjoyed the Bling today & have a wonderful weekend planned. I DO! Cindy & I are off to Canton for the 1st Monday Antique Fair… Stay tuned!


HUGS! Charlene

    SO sorry to hear about your father-in-law, Charlene...not an easy time for you, I'm sure.

    On a lighter note, I LOVE your beautiful fall bling, my friend! The heavier the better, as far as I'm concerned--Love it!

    Hope you have fun at the antique fair next week! Find some GOOD stuff!!!

    Charlene,
    That Fall BLING is fabulous!!!!!

    So sorry to hear about your father-in-law. We went through that last year..... it is emotionally draining...

    Being with freinds is very uplifting, so enjoy yourself dear lady,
